This letter led to correspondence
between the two commissioners, in
which Mr.. Lee on Oct. 6, suggested
"That in view of the limited APP
preparation by Maryland, and that
the field work was unfinished, they
should report progress and not make
a final report to their respective leg
islatures, and further, to reduce the
estimate, and in lieu oft direct Lieut..

and west, and occasionally through
some open fields. There were very
few clearings along 1t; in the first
place the country does not become
very thickly settled until north of the
railroad, and in the second place
many portions of lands along it are
so inditferently poor, that, as long
as so much better is to be found, but
little inducement is offered to settle
there. Again so much doubt existed
among the inhabitants as to the true
